    Migration and Translation. Changing Concepts, Critical Approaches. An Interview with Doris Bachmann Medick

    No full text
    Migration and translation are two major issues of contemporary life and are recurrent themes in theoretical and critical thought across many disciplines. Language practices in migratory times go beyond the level of linguistic and communicative activity and make us aware of the power of language, translation, mutual understanding and social/political/cultural practices. In order to better understand the challenges and potentials facing us as interpreters, translators or scholars in Translation Studies we need to move beyond our disciplinary borders and open the discipline up to new perspectives and methodologies. Starting from these premises we believe that Doris BachmannMedick’s work on migration and translation is central for a critical rethinking of the role of translation, translators, interpreters and cultural mediators in a period of massive migrations towards Western Europe. The interview proposes a new approach for studying, researching and working with linguistic/cultural translation in an era of transnational movements and displacements

    Current issues and future challenges in transitional justice

    No full text
    This chapter reflects upon the current status and the potential for the field of transitional justice, its theoretical aspects and practical application, to respond to the new and emerging challenges and threats of global significance. We propose a new understanding and approach to transitional justice, which is more responsive to the different types of transitions and conflicts by prescribing varied forms of justice through the different processes and mechanisms, formal and customary. Despite recognising the dangers and disadvantages of over-expanding the field, in order to accommodate the changing needs and experiences of the notion of transitional justice globally there is a necessity to open up new dimensions for exponential development of the field. We conclude with an observation that the notion and concept of transitional justice will continue to change and evolve as the needs of global society for achieving justice develop along new lines of conflicts and future global challenges

    Prompt charm production in pp collisions at &#8730;<span style="text-decoration:overline">s</span>=7 TeV

    Charm production at the LHC in pp collisions at s√=7 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector. The decays D0→K−π+, D+→K−π+π+, D⁎+→D0(K−π+)π+, D+s→ϕ(K−K+)π+, Λ+c→pK−π+, and their charge conjugates are analysed in a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 15 nb−1. Differential cross-sections dσ/dpT are measured for prompt production of the five charmed hadron species in bins of transverse momentum and rapidity in the region 0&#60;pT&#60;8 GeV/c and 2.0&#60;y&#60;4.5. Theoretical predictions are compared to the measured differential cross-sections. The integrated cross-sections of the charm hadrons are computed in the above pT-y range, and their ratios are reported. A combination of the five integrated cross-section measurements gives σ(cc¯)pT&#60;8 GeV/c,2.0&#60;y&#60;4.5=1419±12(stat)±116(syst)±65(frag) μb, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and due to the fragmentation functions

    First observations of B̅[0 over s]→D[superscript +]D[superscript -], D[+ over s]D[superscript -] and D[superscript 0]D̅[superscript 0] decays

    First observations and measurements of the branching fractions of the B̅[0 over s]→D[superscript +]D[superscript -], B̅[0 over s]→D[+ over s]D[superscript -] and B̅[0 over s]→D[superscript 0]D̅[superscript 0] decays are presented using 1.0  fb[superscript -1] of data collected by the LHCb experiment. These branching fractions are normalized to those of B̅[superscript 0]→D[superscript +]D[superscript -], B[superscript 0]→D[superscript -]D[+ over s] and B[superscript -]→D[superscript 0]D[- over s], respectively. An excess of events consistent with the decay B̅[superscript 0]→D[superscript 0]D̅[superscript 0] is also seen, and its branching fraction is measured relative to that of B[superscript -]→D[superscript 0]D[- over s]. Improved measurements of the branching fractions B(B̅[0 over s]→D[+ over s]D[- over s]) and B(B[superscript -]→D[superscript 0]D[- over s]) are reported, each relative to B(B[superscript 0]→D[superscript -]D[+ over s]). The ratios of branching fractions are B(B̅[0 over s]→D[superscript +]D[superscript -])/B(B̅[superscript 0]→D[superscript +]D[superscript -])=1.08±0.20±0.10, B(B̅[0 over s]→D[+ over s]D[superscript -])/B(B[superscript 0]→D[superscript -]D[+ over s])=0.050±0.008±0.004, B(B̅[0 over s]→D[superscript 0]D̅[superscript 0])/B(B[superscript -]→D[superscript 0]D[- over s])=0.019±0.003±0.003, B(B̅[superscript 0]→D[superscript 0]D̅[superscript 0])/B(B[superscript -]→D[superscript 0]D[- over s])<0.0024 at 90% CL, B(B̅[0 over s]→D[+ over s]D[- over s])/B(B[superscript 0]→D[superscript -]D[+ over s])=0.56±0.03±0.04, B(B[superscript -]→D[superscript 0]D[- over s])/B(B[superscript 0]→D[superscript -]D[+ over s])=1.22±0.02±0.07, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.National Science Foundation (U.S.
